Chapter 660: Courtesy first, then attack

When an opportunity is presented to a vulture lawyer that can increase his net worth by tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars in one go, what will his attitude be?

Based on Larson's net worth, if what Li Dongling said comes true, then this amount of money will be equivalent to directly doubling his net worth!

As for whether he believes Li Dongling's words, Larson has known Li Dongling for so many years, and he has personally watched Li Dongling's worth skyrocket. Others may not believe it, but he cannot disbelieve it.

Back then, Larson was able to cheat Microsoft for dollars. At that time, it was only for a few million dollars.

Now, what appears in front of Larson is a profit that is nearly a hundred times more than the millions of dollars he earned back then. This makes Larson unable to bear it.

Although Larson seemed to be a "nice gentleman" to Li Dongling, he pretended to be the legal director of a listed company.

But in essence, Larson is still a veteran vulture lawyer. To put it bluntly, he is an American lawyer in a suit. His job is to lick blood from the edge of a knife, and he will do anything for dollars.

Lawyers in America are very different from the lawyers imagined by inland people. Lawyers here are subdivided into many types. Some lawyers just litigate for dollars. They don’t pay a dollar for any bullshit justice. value!

There are even American lawyers, such as Jayoma, who moved the Hollywood TV series "Better Call Saul" from a TV series to reality, specializing in defending street criminals. His defense strategy is that there is no moral bottom line, as long as he can Win, run the train with your mouth full.

He talks about treating every customer equally, but Joe Omar's main focus is to defend those street criminals, so that these criminals can return to the streets, so that federal prisons are free of bad guys, so that street criminals do not go to jail and can continue to shoot Ami. Every day, every time Lijia succeeds, he gets one more die-hard user...

Every time he won a lawsuit, Zioma would co-produce videos with the criminals he "saved" and upload them to the overseas version of Music Note, earning a large amount of clicks and dollars.

Through this model, Zioma quickly became a rising star in the American legal industry, the "godfather" of lawyers to street criminals, and a big blogger on the Internet, and he didn't earn much at all.

He helped exonerate street criminals, but no one cared about how the victims who were beaten, shot, threatened at gunpoint, kidnapped, and molested felt.

Compared to lawyers like Zioma, who are really making money, Larson can be considered a "conscience", at least he doesn't deceive the general public.

Vulture lawyers never look down on small cases worth $20,000. If they don't take action, they will go after America's giant companies, celebrities, rich people, and powerful congressmen.

If you are afraid, you will never be able to work as a vulture lawyer. In this profession, the most important thing is to be brave. As long as you are brave, even the federal commander will dare to unseat you!

"Li, I need you to tell me, what exactly is the product of Torch Group?"

With US dollars, Larson is not afraid of making trouble, but he has been able to live for such a long time. In addition to being brave, he must be fully prepared before every action, otherwise it is likely to become a lawsuit. On the way, he was inexplicably hit and killed by a drunk truck driver.

"An electronic cigarette product is mainly designed to help tobacco users quit smoking. Of course, it has a variety of different flavors for users to choose from!"

Hearing this, even though he was mentally prepared, Larson's heart couldn't help but tremble.

What nonsense, helping tobacco users quit smoking? Larson doesn't believe it at all. I'm afraid it's almost as good as using e-cigarettes to replace traditional tobacco.

"I'm afraid this matter is not that easy. The Federal Tobacco Association will not allow the emergence of such a product to compete with them. In recent years, the original American tobacco market has been shrinking!"


"The other biggest problem is the Federal Drug and Food Administration. Only after passing this level can Torch Group's e-cigarettes fully appear in the American market!"

Larson quickly analyzed that the key to the tough battle of the Torch Group is that this battle must be fought. If he does not fight the American tobacco giant and does not let the other party see the strength of the Torch Group, he will not sit still. Come down and talk to Torch Group.

Li Dongling tapped his fingers on the table. Larson did not say anything. He had seen Li Dongling's methods since the lawsuit with Microsoft. He diverted disaster to the east and directly hit Microsoft's health bar, making everyone You see, where is Microsoft's destiny, that is antitrust!

Giant companies are not afraid of delays, consumption, or spending money, but they are afraid of having their health bars knocked out. If a god has a health bar, he loses his divinity. He is just a big boss with a thicker health bar, and will eventually be knocked down. day.

"The Torch Group does not want to be enemies with tobacco giants such as Philips and Reynolds. If the other party is willing to cooperate, then the Torch Group is willing to cooperate with the other party on e-cigarette products!"

Hearing this, Larson showed an interested look, "Li, what do you mean..." "The Torch Group cannot defeat all enemies. That is unrealistic. What the Torch Group needs to do is to find where it is." As allies of America’s tobacco industry, it’s enough to gain a foothold in America!”

Li Dongling said directly, to put it bluntly, it is still a game of fighting against each other. When they see that the companies that cooperate with Torch Group in e-cigarettes have taken advantage of them, those tobacco giants who are opposed to Torch Group will slowly compromise and fall in favor of Torch Group. .

After all, you can oppose the Torch Group and e-cigarettes, but they can’t do without dollars, right? !

Once e-cigarettes become popular, the stock prices and market value of traditional tobacco companies will basically plummet. The anger of tobacco company boards and the saliva of Wall Street investors will teach the management of tobacco giants such as Philip and Reynolds how to behave!

If they are too aggressive, then don't blame Li Dongling for playing the "explosion" mode, licensing the e-cigarette patent to a group of people in America who want to start a business, and then supplying them with various e-cigarette parts!

Those e-cigarette start-up companies only need to carry sacks and pay money to Torch Group, and then they can get e-cigarettes that are assembled with their company's brand on them, and then sell them in the American market.

Those tobacco giants can block a brand like Ruyan, but when there are dozens, dozens or even hundreds of e-cigarette brands running around in the American states, then it will not be the Torch Group that has a headache, but also the Torch Group. Let them see the majesty of Emperor Ruyan!

Li Dongling has always advocated courtesy first, then attack. The steps were given to the tobacco giants like Reynolds. If they were ignorant and unwilling to go down the steps, then Li Dongling would help them get there in one step and use their faces to have close contact with the ground!

Of course, when doing these things, you must not do them under the name of the Torch Group. How can you do disgusting things and do it under your real name? You can just open a leather company in America, Mexico, Canada, etc.

The key to everything Torch Group does is whether e-cigarettes can be accepted by American smokers. This is the key.

As long as smokers in America accept e-cigarettes, it will be like flooding from a dam. The America Tobacco Association, no matter what, cannot stop the popularity of e-cigarettes in America!

Larson's lips twitched when he heard this. If the Torch Group was allowed to play this way, e-cigarettes would probably become widespread in America. This move can be called stealing.

“However, if possible, Torch Group still hopes to cooperate with America’s traditional tobacco giant!”

Li Dongling said that using the explosion mode is still a trick after all, and most of the profits may have been taken away by those e-cigarette companies.

If you cooperate with tobacco giants such as Reynolds, you may have to give up part of the profits, but the advantage is stability. Ruyan can be sold directly in the American market without going through secondary dealers, and the profits will be much higher.

The most important thing is that with the endorsement of these traditional tobacco giants, the federal drug and food administration will not keep biting the Torch Group.

It would also be conducive to the listing of Torch Group, or splitting off Ruyan and listing it separately in America.

How much money can be made from selling e-cigarettes in a year? In the short term, it may not reach the level of sales of billions of dollars a year in America like in the previous life.

But if Ruyan is hyped up and cashed out after it goes public, it may be worth billions of dollars. This is why companies from all walks of life want to go public, because money can come in quickly. In the stock market, you can really make money. The taxes from Goose City will be collected a hundred years later.

"Larson, Ruyan from the Torch Group has come to America. What you need to do most is to resolve the lawsuit against the Federal Drug and Food Administration!

This is what you are best at. I don’t need to say more. Torch Group will provide you with enough funds, but you must win the lawsuit! ”

Li Dongling didn't say anything serious, but with that 1% of listed equity, he was not afraid that Larson would not be interested.

"If we fight this lawsuit with the Federal Drug and Food Administration, the main battlefield will not be inside the venue, but outside the venue!"

Larson thought for a moment and said that he already had a general outline in his mind. He would still use public opinion and US dollars for public relations. These methods must be used.

Professional things should be done by professional people. Larson is really proficient in these methods and does not need Li Dongling to worry about it at all.

Looking towards the golf course, Li Dongling has made a lot of preparations for Torch Group's Ruyan project.

Including the BAK Group in old Europe, they have also joined the Torch Group camp. By then, if a traditional tobacco giant can be attracted to form an alliance, the Torch Group's chances of winning in overseas markets will increase by a few points!
